There is a technique I use sometimes with varying degrees of success:
- Pick an area of your image that resembles what you want your background to look like and sample with the eye dropper (at least 5x5)
- Create a new document the same size as your image and populate it using the paint bucket tool
- Paste this document as a layer on your original image with blending mode "lighten"
- Adjust opacity as required
This may help with the banding.
Cheers
